est Run
Setting a tilted working plane for the test run
You can use this function on machines, where you want to define the
working plane by manually setting the machine axes.
 Select the Test Run operating mode
 Choose the program you want to test
 Select MOD functions
 Select the menu for defining the working plane
 To activate or deactivate the function, press the ENT
key
 Use the active rotary axis coordinates from the
machine mode of operation, or
 Position the highlight on the desired rotary axis with
the arrow keys and enter the rotary-axis value to be
used by the TNC in the simulation
This function must be enabled by your machine
manufacturer.
If the function has been enabled by your machine
manufacturer, then the TNC does not deactivate the "Tilt
the working plane" function when you select a new
program.
If you simulate a program that does not contain a TOOL
CALL
block, then the axis you have activated for manual
probing in the Manual Operation mode is used by the TNC
as tool axis.
Ensure that the active kinematics in the test run is suitable
for the program you want to test. Otherwise, the TNC may
issue an error message.
